Patient reviews
What patients say
His patience in explaining the problem, and his skill, are both highly commendable. I had been carrying this for two years before I finally sat in front of him.
He explains the problem until he is certain you have understood it. Approachable, friendly and genuinely careful — he admitted me, corrected my liver enzymes and followed up until I was well.
Acute appendicitis with an abscess, and a difficult operation. He was confident and efficient throughout, and his care afterwards — checking on me, answering everything — is what I remember most.
